Beneath our Feet, Under our Eyes

Both utilitarian and decorative, Aida Bergsen’s looking glass pendants hark back to  Victoriana, with a dash of Alice in Wonderland’s spirit. The designer’s favorite flora and  fauna motifs adorn the frames with the same level of intricacy as in all her jewels. It almost  feels as if each looking glass has just been hand-picked from the floor of an enchanted  forest. Each is a vibrant microcosm: here a snake wrapped around a branch, there a lizard  gliding for cover under a bindweed plant, or a flock of auspicious swallows swirling around  the central lens.
